Pirates raise RNLI funds

A group of pirate enthusiasts have rampaged through the streets of Exeter collecting pieces of silver for Exmouth RNLI.

Notorious Natty and his pirate crew collected £424 on International Talk Like a Pirate Day, with more than 20 pirates taking part in the annual pub crawl.

It comprised 15 pubs, starting at 11am and finishing 12 hours later with a live band.

Event spokesman, Therese Canning said: “The crew would like to thank everyone involved, especially all the innkeepers, the generous landlubbers and the band, Spin2 who gave a splendid piratey performance at the Sorry Head.”
